Dubai: the draw

27.02.2012 | Tennis, Starseite 1

This week, Roger will play the tournament in Dubai, seeking a fifth title there.

Roger will open against France's Michael Llodra (ATP 50), whom he defeated in their only meeting last year in Toronto. In the second round, Roger could play Spain's Feliciano Lopez (ATP 16) before possibly meeting another Frenchman: Nicolas Mahut (ATP 84).

In the quarters, our champ could challenge Mardy Fish (ATP 8) and in the semis, a meeting with France's Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, recently having moved forward into the top 5 of the world, is possible. Juan Martin Del Potro, winner in Marseille and finalist in Rotterdam, is also a likely opponent in this stage. Novak Djokovic is in the other half of the draw, seeded as no. 1.

Roger, win the Dubai Championship for you 10,000,000 fans in facebook! :) Just less than 20,000 more and you're breaking another record! :) All the best in Dubai! Can't wait till you lift that trophy up and high! :)
